Welcome newbies
I've added you to the front page, where there is a wonderful abundance of abbreviations, snow_ball!
I hope your stays are short on here.
I wish I could run, JoBatch, but I have tendon issues in my ankle which hurts if I run
aileth I hope you're feeling better soon
dotty, I have no idea how many kids OH and I will have, it's hard enough trying for one!
Hi Lulu, please can I be added? 30 ttc#1. Thanks0 -
Morning all! I have been lurking but not posted in ages and look what happens, lots of new members. Welcome to you all
Hope your stay is short in the nicest possible way!
AFM Could I please be updated to CD2?Been trying to stay away a bit cos finding it hard this month, thinking about how many weeks I would have been if I hadn't miscarried end of November. Trying to stop myself from thinking that way but it's so hard
Dolly - how are you doing? I've got my fingers firmly crossed that it's third time lucky for you
Me and OH have tentatively agreed on 2 children, although we are both one of three, so I think that would be nice too!! However getting pregnant with one is turning out hard enough so we will have to see how we get on!
JoBatch80 - I'm glad the doctor took you seriously and you feel you're getting somewhere. Fx your bloods are all normal
Thanks for doing the lists Kellykins and Lulu0 -
Welcome hbex! I've added you to the list
It's both nice and not nice to see you again snapping, if you know what I mean. I would be doing the same as you if it was me, hopefully you aren't on here for long this time.Our Rainbow Twins born 17th April 2016

Did any ladies here take the minipill? If so how long did it take to get your first AF after coming off? I'm getting irrationally grumpy about it not turning up yet even though
I've only been off it for 3 weeks! I know I need to chill out about it but I just want to know that my bits are working. Sorry for being a grump.0 -
Hi everyone.
Snapping-crocodile Glad your back. Looking forward to seeing your BFP very soon. I know how you feel. We are going on holiday soon, and we were planning on using this time to discuss names etc. It has put a bit of a bummer on it to be honest.
My cycles are still all over the show. First one I had a 30 days cycle, then a whopping 43 day cycle, so we will see what happens this month. I will start doing OPK's again in a few days to see if I can catch OV. Dont want to take loads of this stuff with me on hols though, so might be a bit of guesswork this month.
Welcome to everyone else. Nice to see this thread so active!
Good luck at the docs JoBatch80. I remember the late nights studying for my OU degree all too well, so hope you can get your essay done.
Lulu - how do you deal with your ankles? I have had tendonitis for about a year. I dont take ibuprofen because of TTC. Some days I struggle to walk:(. I do go to the gym which helps but only momentarily. Physio was OK, but again, only short term.0 -

*de-luring*
Hi hbex - I was on Cerazette for about 4 years before TTC. I got my first AF 37 days after stopping - it felt like a lifetime! Some ladies take much longer, and some catch straight away as you're apparently more fertile when you come off birth control! I got up duffed on my 4th cycle. Good luck with it

Sucks to hear about your holiday plans not being able to happen
To be quite honest, I don't do anything about it. I think it was triggered by using the treadmill, so I went to the hospital and they gave me physio exercises. They worked for a bit but I was never allowed to rest it or have anything to help me walk (and I worked in a bingo hall at the time so it was 12 hours of standing every day!)
I do the exercises sometimes if it flares up but I'm naughty and I rest it insteadOur Rainbow Twins born 17th April 2016
